@Liaton9000: You seem to be filling this article with lots and lots of PR, press-releases and other crap WP:SPS and unreliable sources. Why are you doing that. scope_creep^Talk 09:25, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure how to answer your question, because I wasn't aware I was using "crap" and "unreliable" sources. That being said, I am happy to take this opportunity to compare my sources with the WP:SPS guidelines and remove any that are low-quality or inappropriate.

I'm new to actively editing Wikipedia, so any constructive criticism you can provide would be very helpful. In the meantime, feel free to track my changes and let me know if I don't address the issues to your satisfaction. Liaton9000 (talk) 05:27, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Just to follow up, I've located what I think is the relevant section:

"Self-published material is characterized by the lack of independent reviewers (those without a conflict of interest) validating the reliability of the content. Further examples of self-published sources include press releases, the material contained within company websites, advertising campaigns, material published in media by the owner(s)/publisher(s) of the media group, self-released music albums, and electoral manifestos..."

If you can point me to any further sections that may be applicable, please let me know! Liaton9000 (talk) 05:34, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Hello Liaton9000, visitor here. Some other policies about primary sources are WP:PRIMARY (describing a number of limits about how they can be used), WP:NOTDATABASE ("data should be put in context with explanations referenced to independent sources"), and WP:INDY (describing how we use those independent reliable sources to summarize a topic's "role and achievements within society, rather than offering a directory listing or the contents of a sales brochure"). I hope this helps. Llll5032 (talk) 21:18, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

Wonderful, thank you very much for the information. I will dive into these resources and adjust my editing accorrdingly! Liaton9000 (talk) 22:04, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

Your draft article, User:Liaton9000/sandbox

Hello, Liaton9000. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "sandbox".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Liaton9000! Your additions to John Lavis have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 00:38, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa, thank you for bringing this to my attention.

I reviewed the edits and I am not sure which of my contributions were in violation of copyright, but I do see that a segment has been removed that was not added by me.

Can you clarify for me if I, indeed, violated copyright, or if I somehow interacted with the pre-existing copyrighted material that led to my being caught in the copyright notice?

If it was indeed my edits that were the problem, then I apologize and thank you for the guidance! Liaton9000 (talk) 02:36, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

National Resilience moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, National Resilience, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
